cancelation
Event gets scrapped
Cancelation is an alternative spelling of cancellation, the act of calling something off or revoking it: The cancelation of our flight left us stranded.
Both spellings are standard, though cancellation with two l's is more common in edited writing.
The word covers everything from appointments to subscriptions to stamps.
